My life...
Car.
So just over a month ago, my speedometer quit working.
It would sit at 30KM/H whether I was moving, or stopped.
I learned to use my tachometer and got really good at going with the flow of traffic to judge the speed I was going and I did a pretty good job at it.
I brought my car in on Tuesday to see what the problem was. Turns out my speedometer cluster was broken.
So my choices were, a new one for $1500 or a used one from Kenora for $220. So naturally I chose the cheaper.
What I did not know or realize, is that a new speedometer cluster includes a speedometer face plate and would be in MPH instead of KM/H. FUCKKKKKK
Canada operates in KM/H and the KM/H on speedometer face plate are super tiny. And now my mileage is actually in miles not kilometers. And I need to track mileage (in KM) for placement and work. So now I have to do the fucking conversion.
When I realized it (because they never did tell me, even after I paid $500 for the repair) I ended up having a full on meltdown.
I've been so stressed all month and this just completely put me over the edge.
Maybe I'm silly or over reacting about the speedometer. But it really stresses me out.
I just wish I had left it broken. I had it figured out.... I just had to google map the distance I had driven and write down the KM from there.
Feeling really down,

Placement
So I started placement today!
I'm with Dilico (first nations childrens aid). And I will be a case manager! It's going to be super fast paced and busy but I thrive off of that kind of thing! I get my own desk, computer and maybe even phone and number!
Kind of pumped to try out the whole desk job thing. Since last year I was in the grou home and working "frontline". So this is kind of the other part of working with children in child welfare.
Anyways today was a an exhausting day. I'll try to blog more...

Winnipeg
So on monday I went to Winnipeg for the third time (second time seeing Dr.Stitz).
He did an injection with 3 needles in different spots along my back with local anesthetic.
I had an anxiety attack while he was doing the xrays. It was because I was anxious and nervous about the pain that I knew waws going to happen. I fet pretty silly but the doctor and his assistant were really good about it, they told me its ok and that they understand and they gave me some kleenexes (yea I was crying). Then they made some jokes about how they need a stress balll with the doctors face on it so that people can take their anger and pain out on "him" lol.
The injection sites were really close this time and I couldn't tell the difference in them putting one in after another, just felt like a continum of pain lol.
But the most exciting thing about the injection.... I WAS PAIN FREE! No hip pain (every other injection I've had in my back has caused me hip pain), no back pain!
It was short lived of course. The pain is back this morning. BUT it was a test, and as far as I can tell.. it was successful. So I sent my pain chart to him and we'll see what he says when he has decided!!

ps- My birthday is tomorrow!
